Pokémon, Inkaros, my starter Pokémon

Palkia, the master of space.

The overlord of the reverse world, Giratina, the Giratina.

Kyurem, the strongest dragon.

The glorious god Necrophos!

Sword and Shield's Poison Dragon, Eternatus.

Zhu Zi's Motorcycle Shuanglong, etc...

The dragon attribute, which reigns supreme in the world of elves, is countered by Kenzat, so Kenzat... remains a divine weapon!!!

If Mei is trained properly, she will be able to take down a dragon-type divine beast with a single kick in the future.

……

However, to be honest, Shi Dou obtained this Ken by chance from a system shop refresh and through a popularity lottery.

In the original setting of Seer, Ken was a reward spirit that could only be obtained by clearing the 60th floor of the Tower of Heroes.

Now that it's available in the shop, does that mean... once Shidou completes the P1 Fighting Tournament mission, unlocks the 'Space Station Gameplay,' and successfully clears the Tower of Heroes, the 'slot' originally intended as a reward for Ken will be available...

Perhaps they will replace it with other rarer and more powerful spirits as rewards?

This speculation ignited a fire in Shi Dou's heart.

If that's the case, then the immersive space station system that's about to be unlocked will be far more valuable than he expected. It's not just a training ground, but more likely a treasure trove that continuously produces powerful Pokémon and rare resources!

A new motivation surged within him. Whether it was for the growth of Mei and Ken, or to unlock deeper functions of the system, he was determined to win the upcoming P1 Fighting Tournament!

…………

After solemnly entrusting his new partner Ken to Mei, the afternoon gym challenge began as scheduled. Today, Tokito did not personally participate, but instead took a backseat, acting as a mentor and leaving the main battleground to Mei and her new partner.

Mei's fighting talent certainly did not disappoint Tokito.

Facing her first challenger, a bug-catching boy with a Beedrill, Mei was a little nervous about her first real battle, but her instructions were clear and she quickly found her rhythm with Ken.

Ken used [Fighting Spirit] to increase his speed and then easily repelled Beedrill's twin needles with his agile [Flying Swallow Kick]. He then finished the battle cleanly and decisively with a [Kick Blade] at close range.

"Well done, keep the pace, and trust your judgment."

Shi Dou nodded in approval from the sidelines.

With a good start, Ya Yi's confidence increased greatly.

In subsequent battles, Mei and Ken's teamwork steadily improved.

Against opponents of equal skill, Ken, with his superb fighting techniques and Mei's well-timed command, can generally secure victory. Sometimes he uses his [Strength] to enhance his power and then launch a powerful [Knee Strike] attack, and other times he uses [Spinning Blade] to harass from a distance, his tactical application becoming increasingly sophisticated.

Of course, they also encountered a few unreasonable challengers who sent out evolved Pokémon, such as Pidgeotto or Finch.

Faced with the disparity in strength, Mei did not stubbornly rely solely on Ken to fight. Instead, at Tokito's instruction, she dispatched Golem and even the guardian deity, Kumamon, to deal with the challenge, thus firmly upholding the dignity of the dojo.

After a full day of challenges, the team achieved a brilliant record of 28 wins and 2 losses!

Both losses occurred when Ken was exhausted and faced formidable evolved opponents; though defeated, they were still honorable. Several challengers who performed exceptionally well were also recognized by Tokito, and Mei presented them with new golden badges on his behalf.

Seeing that Mei was able to use Ken to such an extent in just one day, and was able to calmly command the other Pokémon in the gym to deal with different situations, Tokito felt very gratified.

It seems that entrusting the daily operations of the gym to Bumin and Mei for a period of time is entirely feasible.

Shidou said he could finally be free for a while and go about his own business.

The next morning, as the sun began to shine on the golden city, everything was ready for the P1 Fighting Tournament to be held that day in a small town near Celadon City.

After temporarily entrusting the operation of the gym entirely to Bumin and Mei, Tokito drove away from Saffron City alone.

As the vehicle traveled along the highway, the scenery outside the window gradually changed from the urban jungle to the lush countryside. After about an hour, a small town full of lively atmosphere came into view.

Even before entering the town center, the sounds of bustling people and rousing music could be heard.

The streets were adorned with colorful flags and banners for the P1 Fighting Tournament, and muscular trainers were everywhere, most of them accompanied by various Fighting-type Pokémon.

There are Machamp and Machoke swinging their fists, Mankey and Infernape jumping around with excess energy, Fearless Boy and his three evolutions, and even some relatively rare creatures like Makushita and Medicham.

The air was filled with the scent of fighting spirit and sweat, brimming with a sense of power and competitive passion.

"It seems this is the place where fighters can revel."

Shi Dou parked the car, feeling the intense atmosphere around him. A battle-ready smile appeared on his lips. He touched the deep blue spirit capsule in his pocket and muttered:

"Salud, are you ready to cause a ruckus? Your stage has arrived."

Sensing the intense atmosphere and the fighting spirit permeating the air, the deep blue spirit capsule in Tokito's pocket trembled slightly. Salud inside seemed to sense the impending battle as well, conveying excitement and anticipation.

Shi Dou walked straight to the registration area of ​​the conference. Just as he was filling out the form, a familiar voice rang out beside him.

"Eh? Mr. Tokito! Are you also participating in the P1 Fighting Tournament?"

Tokito turned around and, sure enough, saw Ash, Misty, and Brock.

Ash looked delighted, and Pikachu greeted him warmly.

"Yes, let's bring our newly tamed little guy out to see the world and get some experience." Shi Dou nodded with a smile, waving the registration form in his hand.

"A new little sprite? What's it like?" Xiaoxia asked curiously as she leaned closer.

"Wow, another Pokémon I've never seen before!" Ash exclaimed, immediately pulling out his Pokédex, only to find a blank page and the message "Data unknown".

"He looks incredibly strong..." Xiaoxia exclaimed, keenly sensing Salud's extraordinary abilities.

Xiao Gang crossed his arms and observed carefully, saying, "This appearance... is full of aggression. Is it a Fighting-type?"

“That’s right, it’s a Fighting type.” Tokito patted Salud’s head, and although the latter’s expression remained cold, he did not resist.

Then Tokito explained, "It's called Salud, and it's only in its initial form right now."

"Is this impressive even in its initial form? But I won't give up easily! My Primeape and I will go all out!" Ash clenched his fists, his fighting spirit burning.

"Alright, I'll wait and see." Shi Dou replied with a smile, looking forward to seeing what kind of performance Xiao Zhi and his gifted Infernape would deliver.

After registration closed, all participants and spectators entered the main venue of the conference.

A standard fighting ring. The stands were packed, spotlights were focused on the center of the ring, and rousing music filled the entire arena, creating an atmosphere comparable to a world-class boxing match.

Holding the microphone, the host introduced the history and rules of the P1 Fighting Tournament in a passionate voice, praising all the participants and Fighting-type Pokémon. His eloquent speech brought the atmosphere to a fever pitch.

"Alright, without further ado! The exciting P1 Fighting Tournament is now...officially beginning. First, let's draw the first round of matchups!"

The host announced loudly.

A giant electronic screen began rapidly scrolling through the avatars and names of all the contestants. A few seconds later, the scrolling stopped, and the list of the first pair of opponents was clearly displayed on the screen.

【First Match】: Tokito VS Martial Arts Airbus.

It must be an unknown guy.

PS: Thanks to [Leo Alpha] for the quick, albeit clumsy, attack!

The previous lineup was too strong, let's switch to another one.

Chapter 89 Starmie gets its legs slapped twice, but insists it's a Mega Evolution.

When Airbus saw Shidou step onto the ring, his young age immediately spurred him on with disdain. He flexed his muscular biceps, waving them in front of Shidou with an air of arrogance, and gruffly said, "Hmph, where did this little brat come from, daring to participate in the P1 Fighting Tournament? Fighting isn't child's play; it requires real strength!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Tou sighed helplessly, pointed to himself, then to Salud beside him, and said, "Uncle, are you mistaken? This is a competition for us trainers, a Pokémon battle, not a hand-to-hand fight between us. If it were really the trainers themselves going into battle..."

As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Zhi, who was looking puzzled by his conversation with Airbus, and said with a hint of teasing, "This seemingly harmless kid next to me is probably already a world champion."

"Huh? Me???"

Xiao Zhi, who was suddenly called out, pointed at himself with a blank expression.

Airbus looked in the direction Shi Dou pointed and saw Xiao Zhi's still-childish appearance, and scoffed, "Him? This little kid? Are you kidding me! I think you're all a bunch of ignorant brats!"

Shi Dou shook his head, too lazy to explain any further.

Do you have no idea what the value of a "super rookie" really means?

Lifting a Tyranitar weighing tens of kilograms with bare hands, taking a hit from Pikachu's 100,000 volts is just routine for him, and he can still be lively and energetic even after being hit by various explosions... This guy's physical abilities have long surpassed the limits of humanity!

It's already at the level of a divine beast. Trying to fight it hand-to-hand? You'd probably die without even knowing how.

"Both players are in position! The match begins!" The referee waved the flag.

"Let me show you real power! Go, Machamp!" Airbus roared, dispatching his muscular Machamp. Machamp immediately struck a classic bodybuilding pose, its three arms displaying powerful muscles, exuding an imposing aura.

"Salud, prepare for battle." Tokito's voice was calm and even.

The deep blue Salud leaped gracefully onto the ring, its streamlined body and sharp scythe arms contrasting sharply with the muscular Gorilla opposite it.

"What Pokémon is that?"

"I've never seen anything like it before! The color is so unique!"

Is it a shiny Pokémon? Or a new species?

"Looks so cool!"

Salud's appearance immediately sparked a curious discussion among the audience. Its unique appearance and cold demeanor made it stand out among the many common Fighting-type Pokémon.

Airbus clearly didn't recognize Salud either, but he was full of confidence in his Machamp: "No matter how fancy the elf is, it's all in vain before absolute power! Machamp, chop with your bare hands!"

"Hawkward!" Hawthorn shouted, and one of his arms slashed towards Salud with a sharp gust of wind.

Facing Machamp's powerful, straight punch, Salud's deep blue compound eyes flashed with an almost contemptuous look. In its eyes, this Machamp's muscle definition, explosiveness, and speed were far inferior to the Machamp in the Goldenrod City Fighting Gym that had undergone rigorous training, been through countless battles, and had been brutally beaten by Incaros countless times.

too weak.

Sarod didn't even use any enhancement skills; he simply relied on his exceptional speed and reflexes to slightly turn his body, allowing the heavy punch to graz its carapace and miss completely.

"Now! Double Flash of the Moon!" Shi Dou's command was concise and clear.

Salud's two scythes were instantly covered by a dazzling white light. His figure darted forward like a ghost, and two intersecting crescent-shaped slashes flashed through the air, accurately hitting Haoli, who had exposed a huge opening due to his overly forceful punch!

"Heroic Power!!!"

Haoli only had time to let out a short scream before his massive body was sent flying by the fierce double strike. He crashed heavily into the ropes at the edge of the arena, then slid to the ground, his eyes swirling with spiral patterns, completely incapacitated.

The whole process was so fast it was breathtaking.

The entire venue fell silent for a moment, then erupted in deafening gasps!

"Instant...instant kill?! One hit and it's done?!" The host's voice trembled with excitement. "That's incredible! Absolutely incredible! Mr. Shidou's little scyther has displayed overwhelming power! What kind of Pokémon is that?!"

Ash and the others were also dumbfounded.

"Wow...that's strong! We need to do our best too, Incineroar!"

Xiao Zhi muttered to himself, then clenched his fist tightly.

"Pikachu!" Pikachu also felt the pressure.

Xiao Gang nodded solemnly: "Yes, we can't fall behind either."

Ash and his friends remembered that their purpose in coming here was to help Mei, a girl from town, defeat her father, Gentoo, who was obsessed with his dream of winning the P1 Fighting Championship, and bring him back to his family.

But seeing this scene before him, Shidou felt speechless.

To be honest... if a fighter like Mr. Fan Dou were easily defeated here, would he really give up his dream and return to his family? Or would he become even more determined because of his unwillingness to accept defeat?

Moreover... given Mr. Fan's previous performance, he couldn't even defeat Hibari, the commander of Team Rocket. How did he have the confidence to suggest keeping Ash's exceptionally talented Primalmon for "training"?

That's utterly shameless!

The rest of the matches proceeded as scheduled.

Soon, it was Ash's turn to appear, and his opponent was just a random passerby.

As the match began, Ash's Primeape remained wild and untamed, completely disobeying commands and running around the arena like a headless fly. Experienced Pokémon easily dodged its attacks and launched counterattacks, quickly putting Primeape on the defensive and leaving it battered and bruised.

"Primus! Calm down! Listen to my commands!" Ash shouted anxiously from the sidelines, but to no avail.

During a fierce attack, Primeape was sent flying and was about to crash into the sharp corner pillar at the edge of the arena. Seeing this, Ash rushed forward without thinking and used his body to block the corner pillar!

"Thump!" Ash caught the Primeape solidly, but he himself groaned from the impact, his back burning with pain.

“Inferno…” Inferno turned around and saw the trainer who was injured while protecting him. For the first time, his eyes, which were originally full of rage, showed a look of surprise and emotion.
